Grand HIRAFU has 30 ski trails and 15 lifts and gondolas, so you can choose what’s right for you, regardless whether you’re a beginner or an expert.
Allow yourself to enjoy the best powder snow while gazing upon Mt. Yotei, which occupies a prized position on Japan’s list of 100 famous mountains. If you’re here in the summer, let the summer gondola show you a panorama view of Mt. Yotei and the Niseko area.

The snow school offers lessons to not only beginners, but also offers programs for advanced skiers and snowboarders. Our instructors work hard to hear the students say “It’s always fun to learn here!” at the end of the lesson.
Our rental shops have gear for all ages, from kids to seniors, so you can enjoy the world’s best powder snow with the newest gear.

Our restaurants offer you the chance to enjoy a wide range of dishes made using ingredients produced in the Niseko region. At our shops, you will find a wide selection of Hokkaido specialty products, as well as any outdoor goods you want to add to your collection. Our hotel and condominium accommodation will provide you with a wealth of relaxation options. You can enjoy Niseko Grand HIRAFU in a way that suits your own personal style.

Approximately 2 hours and 10 minutes by car from New Chitose Airport, Niseko’s location is easy to reach from the Kanto and Kansai regions. The Grand Shuttle bus stops at the base of the mountain in the HIRAFU area. The bus runs through the area around every 20 minutes in the daytime, and roughly every 30 minutes during Night Skiing hours.

You can book online, including accommodation, lessons at the snow school, and the rental of gear such as skis or snowboards. Even if it’s your first time on the snow, you can have a fun and safe time skiing or snowboarding at Grand HIRAFU.

The new facility
MOUNTAIN CENTER ANNEX
Open on Dec. 7, 2019

The Tokyu Land Corporation (Headquarters: Shibuya Ward, Tokyo; President: Yuji Okuma) together with Niseko Tokyu Resort Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Abuta-gun, Hokkaido; President: Shinji Isome) and Tokyu Resort Service Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya Ward, Tokyo; President: Motoyoshi Kumazawa) would like to announce the new construction of the “Mountain Center Annex”, a facility located next to the lower slopes of Niseko Mt. Resort Grand HIRAFU, the ski resort in Kutchan, Abuta-gun, Hokkaido, which we manage and operate. The new facility will open for business in December 2019.

Since large numbers of skiers and snowboarders from within Japan and overseas visit to enjoy the outstanding snow quality in Niseko and Hokkaido, our aim is that visitors will easily be able to enjoy Niseko’s quality of snow while also experiencing a winter resort that is even more satisfying than before. The new Mountain Center Annex is situated in the perfect location, both adjacent to the HIRAFU Gondola Sanroku Station and right in front of the beginner-friendly Holiday Pair Lift, allowing for direct access to the slopes.

The Mountain Center Annex features a public area, snow school reception desk, changing rooms and locker rooms on the first floor, with a large-scale ski and snowboard rental shop, boasting a floor area of 802m2, on the second floor. This rental shop offers our visitors a total of 3,000 items. In addition, the newly-installed “Japan Brand” corner showcases domestic brands including Ogasaka Ski and BLASTRACK, as well as local Niseko brands ROKO SKI and GENTEMSTICK. Our comprehensive array of products can be enjoyed by both domestic and overseas visitors. We are also launching an overnight holding service for rental items so that guests can go back and forth to their accommodation completely hands-free.

Expansion of Online Services! Rental/School Online Reservation Site

On October 1, 2019, Tokyu Resort Service Co., Ltd. launched a new multi-language rental and snow school online reservation site for the seven ski resorts managed by the Tokyu Snow Resort Group (Niseko Mt. Resort Grand HIRAFU, Grandeco Snow Resort, Tambara Ski Park, Mt. Jeans Nasu, Hunter Mountain Shiobara, Tangram Ski Circus, Ski Jam Katsuyama). The online reservation site, operable on both PCs and smartphones, allows our visitors to make advance reservations for the equipment or clothing you want to rent, or snow school class that you want to take, and then pick up or return your rental equipment or confirm your snow school participation effortlessly on the day, by holding up a QR code displayed on your smartphone to a scanner.
Starting from last season (2018-19), at ski resorts managed by the Tokyu Resort Service we have taken steps towards cashless operation with initiatives such as enabling transactions using electronic money and smartphone payments at our on-site facilities. With the launch of this new reservation site, we are aiming for even more improvements in convenience.

In fiscal year 2011, Niseko Tokyu Resort Co., Ltd. newly established two ski centers, the Mountain Center and .Base (Dot Base) as a large-scale capital investment, as well as the renewal of the HIRAFU Gondola and new suite rooms at Hotel Niseko Alpen. In fiscal year 2016, we rebuilt and reopened the King Lift #3 as a four-seater high speed lift, and in fiscal year 2017, we rebuilt and reopened the Ace Family Lift as a high speed quad lift. The Tokyu Land Corporation Group will continue in our efforts to implement various initiatives to stimulate the vitalization of the Niseko HIRAFU Area.

We appreciate your continued support of Niseko Mt. Resort Grand HIRAFU.
